Well, after f*c*ing about for ages yesterday and again this morning have come to the conclusion this mf must go backwards to come out. with a pencil beam torch I can just glimpse the top and sides of a bracket that tank appears to be attached to, so definately does not come up. As mine has dual batteries this involves removing one and the tray, so I thinks, right, headlight out it is - cannot get out without removing grill - cannot get off without removing spotlights. Do japs design and build, because mine has been built and then designed, also no two models are the same, everyone has slight variations, no quick jobs on these !! Almost makes me want a LR. (wash your mouth out) lol
Rant over, weather (and Mrs) permitting will remove one bat. and tray and try again - all to replace one bulb
Cheers, John
